Madonna says a Jewish mystic changed her life

Madonna says a Jewish mystic changed her life.
The ‘4 Minutes’ singer overhauled her attitudes and outlook on life after
meeting Eitan Yardeni when she was pregnant with daughter Lourdes 14 years
ago.
She revealed in a column in Israeli newspaper Yediot Ahronot: "I suddenly
realised that I spent my entire life worrying only about myself and soon I'd
be responsible for the life of another person. I started seeing that being
rich and famous is not the end of the road, but only the beginning."
Madonna is a keen follower of Kabbalah, a mystical offshoot of Judaism, and
has raised her children - 12-year-old Lourdes, Rocco, eight, Mercy, four,
and David, three - in the faith.
She even took Mercy to a Kabbalah meeting in London immediately after she
finalised the adoption process in the tot’s home country of Malawi.
She is also said to be planning to take the children to see the Wailing Wall
in Jerusalem.
The trip will happen in September to coincide with Madonna's final date of
her 'Sticky and Sweet' tour in Tel Aviv, Israel.
A source said: "Madonna wants to give Mercy enough time to settle into her
new home. By September she feels she will be ready to take the trip without
the danger of upheaval.
"The Wailing Wall is a very sacred place for anyone with links to the Jewish
faith and she wants the children to see it."
